Questions About Stagnation Temperatures

Okay, stagnation temperatures are the areas on the plane where the air is slowed all the way down to zero right? How much of an airplane's nose and leading edge experiences these temperatures? I'm guessing it couldn't be too much considering most of the air would be slowed down to a lower mach number, but not all the way to zero.
